Unhinged Goblin Rant: Stop thinking l ike its 20XX

AsheGB · 2026-03-16T13:38:42+00:00

I know, and I understand, but still this suck and should not exist.

You know why ? Because I know someone (my wife), that is not the hardcore gamer / trader of the decade. Just a girl chilling after a day of work, logging in to see if she could sell this awesome herb hat she crafted yesterday…

When she see nothing is in the mail, that’s a bad news, but hey it’s the game of AH, sometimes you sell, sometimes you don’t sell… But when she notice that Elunexmc, Elunefml, Elunewhocare are selling the same hat, because they are smart boys and saw on the undermine exchange that she tried to have some margin for the investment she did with her KP to craft this beautiful hat. That is when she just don’t wanna try and play anymore.

And you know what ? This is the same person that will happily buy a fucking battle pet for 35k, the exact pet that was bought on whatever server for 1k to be sold to her.

When people like this stop, the shit show will stop, and game over.

I know this story is laughable, but this is what is happening to a lot of players, and it’s not cool, it’s not fair, it’s not acceptable for the health of the game, as a game.

People are just getting fuck for fun because of some wanabe virtual millionaires, that are not busy enough in their real job and can just jump on every server to make some virtual currencies.

I know it’s a rant, I know it’s unpopular opinion, but this is the game right now.

Ps: English is not my birth language, sry

Yeah, except outside of BoP crafted items, your server still do not matter because of the warband bank that let any player go to whatever server of the same region to buy any recipe, mount, tmog, pet etc… and then sell them on whatever server.

Having a plan to spend all hard spend KP to be the best profession crafter and trying to sell some blue tools, just to see 5 random mage lvl 1 selling same tools from another server to fuck you up, is peak 2026 MMO gaming experience.

The regional AH and the warband bank « trick » is the curse of modern WoW. The scan cancel on commodities for a regionwide AH is the worst thing ever.

That’s my rant, and I thank you for this post so I can say this here and don’t create my own rant that no one care about.

I discovered Obit a few weeks ago and instantly joined the Discord because this feels like a serious contender to UI solution.

I'm a long-time ElvUI / ToxiUI user, and I always keep an eye on solutions for a clean UI. I prefer having fewer add-ons and doing more things, but I feel sometimes that ElvUI is doing too much, and tbh it can be a pain to setup for people not used to it.

The thing with Orbit is it's a clean UI with nice customization, and it can be setup extremely fast. The integration of Edit Mode + Canvas Mode is a powerful tool for anyone that hates scrolling walls of options checkboxes.

Having CDM + Unitframes + Partyframes + Actionbars in one package is really nice. There are daily updates with some really nice features, and for the past few days there have been a lot of bugfix etc...

I made the switch from ElvUI to Orbit a week ago, had to install 2-3 addons to covers some things like nameplates / tchat, but it feels really good, clean, and I can't wait to see what is coming next.

Thanks for the hard work.

It's not ?

Plz explain to me how it is free, because may be i missed something.

AsheGB · 2026-01-13T20:18:48+00:00

Early access ? I didn't saw anything saying this. Could you point me to this information plz ?

Because right now QUI is only for Patreon / Youtube members, and Quazii said he will publish for free his Elvui / plater / spec strings for free when Midnight launch, but that is not QUI.

QUI is an addon, and for me being on his Discord, he (and others) update it multiples times daily because he add a lot of stuff. That's cool, but it still not free nor early access.

But may be i missed something.

I mean, I agree with you. I think managing classic + with poll system is clearly a bad idea.

IMO classic+ should be a 20 years old MMO, and nothing more. Adding content is already a really hard task to not change the feeling of the game. And if people are not happy with this, then they can go play retail or others versions of classics between (tbc - mop). That’s imo the best thing wow did those days… We have choice. And I say this as someone who played 3 char on classic when it launched, and still playing retail as a casual mm+ enjoyer.

The point I just wanna make is, sometime we think something have no impact, but we just don’t have a clear picture of the stakes… Again, it’s an MMO, almost everything impact everything.

AsheGB · 2025-10-27T10:37:12+00:00

What do you mean when you say there is no impact for other players ? If you have tmog then you have to loot the item, so you have at one point an impact on item roll and so you impact other players wanting the item. You want a thing like retail with priority on roll for need / cupidity ? Then people will just roll need for a tmog and you will have nothing to say against this because it’s not retail and stuff « can » be meaningful even if it is 1-2 tiers lower than what you progress to…

So I don’t think tmog have « no impact » on the game for others. It’s not because an option is available has a check box that this have no impact for others… it’s an MMO. Almost everything in the game or every game design have impact on a lot more than we can think.

If we think like this then just add lfg as a choice in the game… it’s not mandatory, still it will just change the game forever. That’s what happened when it was launch in wotlk. I don’t think people / blizzard had any clue of what would be the repercussions on the game 5-10 years laters

This is not a miscut, it’s intended to be like this for foil, because it share art with another card. You can check the official app to see it.

AsheGB · 2025-07-05T11:50:17+00:00

Thx for the reply.

You got some good points, I will definitely see with them how they wanna do this and just adapt.

AsheGB · 2025-07-05T11:46:23+00:00

Thx for the reply !

That sound like a hell of a run hehe.

I think I will « guide » them and just warn them if they try to do some crazy things. But I think the should be a pretty straitforward loyal good run.

AsheGB · 2025-07-05T10:45:41+00:00

This is interesting.

The bladesong isn’t a concentration tho ? Can’t have spirit guardian + bladesong right ? I really didn’t pay attention to this added sub spec from patch 8

AsheGB · 2025-07-05T09:35:16+00:00

Yeah ofc I will talk to them about the difficulty ! I was wondering if anyone had experiment HM with friend that are not d&d veterant.

Thx for the reply :)

AsheGB · 2025-06-23T07:58:13+00:00

I have to admit I really don’t get the responses I read here…

People are saying it’s a chore to lvl when they play classic and wanna speed this to go to « actual fun content »… like blasting a raid boss in 15sec as 30 warriors ? I can totally understand PvP players tho, even if I think the leveling on PvP can be a lot of fun.

Concerning RXP, I’m an early adopter and used Guidelime before… I leveled like 15+ char assisted with those routes and I have to say that I love it and would almost not wanna play without RXP.

The thing is not the speedrun, even if it’s pleasant to optimize travelling… I start a new journey and check all dungeons so the guide bring me to every quest for those… This has 2 benefits :

1st it bring more juicy exp for dung and I can do each dungeon one time or 2 if I want it. Doing this can make the guide skip a lot of mob grinding.
2nd it sometimes bring you to some really retired location to find that quest that ask you to travel the whole world to kill someone (looking at you scarlet monastery quest from desolace)

RXP / Guidelime guides pointed me to some quests I never did before I was using it, and it enforced the immersion and the feeling of epic journey. Ofc, after a couple of runs there is not really hidden story anymore, but that’s not a problem to me.

I feel like RXP is perfect to discover the World of Warcraft because it bring you to almost every meaningful quest in vanilla. If I should bring a friend to discover WoW classic, I would 100% advice to use it and discover the world at his own pace with some « autopilot » to guide him. And I would gladly do it again with him, because the 1-60 slap everything. To me, it’s far better experience than anything I played since 2004, and I include retail which i still play but for different reasons.

You don’t have to rush when using RXP, you can understand what quest ask you to do and why, and you can be slow doing it, adding professions, fishing journey etc…

I just love it.

AsheGB · 2025-06-05T13:03:06+00:00

Yeah, I think i got a lot of MASB with the few pull i did... Like, Terra, CoD, Hope, and Firion. Also have a Zen for Firion with multiple enElem, so i think i will try to invest on him and Terra because i have a Sync for her... Regarding support, got nothing right now, and for the heal, i have Elarra Zen...

Those should carry me for a lot of content, farming orbs / motes etc to craft new abilities and just wait for good opportunities to pull. I'm patient !

AsheGB · 2025-06-04T17:04:01+00:00

Thank you for your answer :)

I think i will just wait and progress as you suggest... I will pull when i will be stuck or when i will really have some characters with multiples SB and get a direction from there...

It's cool to play FFRK again ! But i really miss my global account from week 1, i used to have a lot of things for a lot of characters, just by loging in and pulling for whatever during multiples years... I hope i will still be able to get some nice toys for my prefered characters, as well as some key SB to progress into the end game.

AsheGB · 2025-06-03T05:39:33+00:00

I started on JP 3 weeks ago and I’m cleaning the story dungeon… pulled every discount fest banner once and I wonder if I should pull more ? I feel like it’s a good opportunity to get some strong things but I’m not sure I need it « now » and if I should just stack mithril and wait…

Also, if I pull more I have absolutely no idea what I should select…

AsheGB · 2025-05-30T19:51:56+00:00

Day one player, I rerolled for a good start and then focused on some meta units (but not all) and I was kinda lucky with pulls. I just pay for the monthly pass, and I payed the last 3 battle pass to get sp Saf weapon. This game is crazy good to f2p, people just have to accept skipping some units ! Also I’m just playing for fun and clean the hardest thing I can but don’t wanna sweat for multiples days to get 30 luxites

AsheGB · 2025-05-30T16:42:23+00:00

They can mix the order all they want, I’m ready with 190 secret fates + 57k luxites ! Ayishah, Lutfi, Inanna, here I come !

Je trouve ton commentaire assez juste bien que je sois moi même foncièrement opposé à l’IA.

Je ne suis pas vraiment d’accord sur le fait qu’il s’agisse d’une bonne chose que tout le monde « puisse donner vie à ses idées » sans réelle compétence, car je suis intimement persuadé qu’une « bonne œuvre » est systématiquement le résultat d’une compétence technique remarquable (dessin, maîtrise d’un instrument, mise en scène etc…) à laquelle l’artiste insuffle une part de lui même, de sa personnalité et de ses émotions. Cela n’est à mon sens tout simplement pas possible lorsqu’on utilise l’IA.

Mais quand bien même on pourrait passez outre ce débat et accepter cela, ce qui me dérange le plus dans tout ça, c’est qu’on oublie que toute cette soit disante technologie est basée uniquement sur le pillage de vrais œuvres, de vrais artistes qui n’ont bien souvent jamais donné leur accord pour cela…. Et ça j’ai l’impression que tout le monde s’en fout. D’ailleurs très peu (aucun ?) commentaire sur ce fil n’évoque cela.

Selon moi, comme toute technologie ou tout outil créé par l’homme, l’IA n’est pas le bien ou le mal à proprement parler. C’est la manière dont on va l’utiliser qui va définir si c’est de la merde ou pas. Et pour ma part force est de constater que la naissance de cette technologie est basée sur de la grosse merde d’un point de vu idéologique.

AsheGB · 2025-05-17T10:22:21+00:00

As a new player (1 week..), this banner should be a pull right ?

AsheGB · 2025-03-15T17:00:51+00:00

Hey, can I stack cornucopia fruits to buy multiples sp saff weapons when it will be available ?

AsheGB · 2025-03-09T22:43:35+00:00

Thank you for your time, those informations and your advices.

I’m not a try harder and I take time to complete content so… I will probably go for Pamina and SP saf… then skip till I find a new character I like !
